This mask is super famous and you have probably already heard tons about it, but I wanted to do a little review still because this is my favorite masks right now and I think everyone should try it. I use this mask once a week to deep clean my skin. This mask gets super deep into your pores and clears everything out. I found that if I use this once a week it clears any blemishes I may have. I have dry skin so I can only use this once a week, anymore would probably dry out my skin because it is a very powerful mask. I originally got this mask in the Sephora beauty box, which if you don’t already know its a box that sends you full size to sample sizes of all types of beauty products sold at Sephora. You can view it here. I used it only a couple times and knew I loved it and right away got the full size. You can get this product at Sephora and the origins website. Price wise ($28 for 3.4 fl. oz.) I think this is great price for what you are getting. I have tried so many drugstore dupes but I have not found anything that works as well.

I’m back with a product review on Madam D.J. Walker Beauty Culture curl whip styling souffle. I wanted to share this product especially for girls with curly/wavy hair. First off this brand is great, they’re products work very well for smoothing frizz and hydrating. I’ve tried out a couple of there products in the past and I’ve liked them all. This so far is my favorite! This product is super easy to use, you just apply it to your hair while its wet and then blow dry it or air dry. This is a thicker cream so its best to use when your hair is wet but there is a serum that they make that does the same thing and it works well on dry hair. Price wise I think its pretty good, the product lasts a while. I got this as a sample and I’ve been using it for months and theres still a lot left. You can view they’re products on the MCJW beauty culture website but they sell through Sephora.

This week I wanted to review a brand called Adore Me, you may have heard of this brand before but they are a lingerie/swim/sleep brand and they are most known for there monthly subscription box. The way this works is every month you pick out a bra and panty set/ sleep set and they mail it to your house. However, you can skip a month if you want to. I have always shopped at Victoria secret for as long as I can remember but I wanted to change things up. I ordered 2 sets as well as a bikini set. I like how they carry many size choices ranging from 30A to triple D but I found that there weren’t many options of plainer colors that you can wear under a lot of clothes which was kind of disappointing. Although I did like how the bikinis had a large age range. For example, there were a lot of skimpier sets and a lot of conservative covering suits to fit anyone’s style. The shipping came in a good amount of time; about 3-5 days. I found the quality is equally as good as Victoria secrets bra’s and underwear. The fabric was very soft and after a couple washings they still seemed new. The bathing suit was great! The fabric was very soft and the quality is great. This bikini is so cool, the top and bottoms cross in the front and tie in the back. If your looking for another place to buy underwear I definitely suggest Adore Me because its great quality and the prices are great (they also have a lot of sales)

This week I wanted to share with you guys a super cool denim brand. This brand is called revice jeans and they have super unique and cool jeans. I’m personally obsessed with denim so once I found this brand I had to get a pair and try them out. This pair is called the ziggy crops, they are very fitted in the waist and more loose in the legs. I got a size 25 which is my regular size for denim but if you want a looser fit in the waist I would size up. These jeans have fraying on all the seams and pockets which makes them look super cool. They are also high waisted so I paired a crop top with them and since they are very interesting I wore a plain black halter top from brandy Melville so the eye focuses on the jeans. Finally I wore my black slip on vans to finish the outfit off. I was super excited for this outfit because one of my friends partnered with me and took all these beautiful photo’s. You should definitely go follow her on instagram because she posts lots of beautiful photography, her instagram is @aqalsphoto .

I’m super excited to share this post because this season I’ve found a lot of really great products. Most of these products I’ve found more recently and some I’ve been using for a while but, I still wanted to share them. Since it’s winter most of these products are hydrating to prevent damage to skin or hair with the cold, dry, air. I have dry skin all year round and these products really help. Some of these products I got as samples from the Sephora subscription box and others I just bought and really liked them. If you love trying new products I definitely suggest getting a subscription to these monthly boxes. If you don’t know how these boxes work they basically send you beauty products (sample sizes and regular) to try in hopes that you will buy more. I currently get the Sephora box and I really like it because they send samples from higher end brands and ones I shop at a lot so, personally I prefer it. I have also tried Ipsy which carry’s high and low brands as well as some not as well known brands. I have also heard good things about boxes like Birchbox, glossy box and glam box. If you want to check them out:

I got this cream in the Sephora box and I didn’t really think I would ever use it but I tried it and I loved it. It hydrates and soothes redness and itching due to dry skin. My skin doesn’t itch when its dry but it defiantly gets very red and irritated. I found this product works on area’s I’m breaking out in. I like to put it on at night before I go to bed because when I wake up my skin looks flawless. I’ve also tried this during the day but I found it doesn’t work as well but I think its mostly because your skin gets more wear during the day then at night. I defiantly recommend this product for anyone who breaks out due to dry skin.

I found these masks a long time ago and I’ve been using them ever since. These masks are really great for sensitive skin, but at first I found the hydrating mask does burn just a little bit but after the first time it stops. I always use the clarifying mask followed by the hydrating mask and it makes my skin super clear and glowing. I sometimes use these masks everyday and I don’t break out or get dry skin because they are very sensitive towards skin. Shea moisture is also a great brand at a great price point, all their products are cruelty free and all natural.

This concealer is already very highly recommended by beauty gurus but I decided to include it anyways. I used to use the Nars creamy radiant concealer (which is still great) until I found this. I’m super pale and I have trouble finding concealer to match my skin tone but this one matches perfectly and feels great on the skin. If you are very pale I definitely suggest checking this concealer out because its amazing! (also I wear the shade fair)

I added these to together because they work pretty similarly. They are both hair oils I got in a Sephora box. They are great for curly hair because it smoothes frizz really well. I use these a lot because I risk a lot of hair damage due to heat and coloring and they work really well to hydrate and smooth for sleek hair. The moroccan oil is a little heavier but great for thick hair and the verb oil is very light so you barely know its there. I use either depending on how my hair is acting that day.

I got this exfoliator in a Sephora box and really liked. I started using it at the end of the day before I went to bed to get off all my makeup and dirt from the day. I found it helped a lot to control acne and it made my skin glow. I would defiantly recommend this for sensitive skin because it exfoliates without irritating the skin. Also since its a 2-in-1 cleanser its great for carrying with you in your bag so you don’t have to carry two cleansers if your traveling.
